Alexander Soros, the son of liberal billionaire mega-donor George Soros and managing partner of Soros Fund Management, is outpacing his father in federal political contributions this election cycle, Federal Election Commission filings show.
Alexander has remained in his father’s shadows in the world of political giving despite quietly increasing his contributions by millions of dollars in recent years. Alexander has given more than $150,000 in contributions this year to federal committees and campaigns—nearly $40,000 more than his father has contributed.
The billionaire heir gave $33,900 to the Democratic National Committee (DNC) in April, the maximum amount that can be donated to a national party in a calendar year. Alexander also cut campaign checks to failed Georgia Democratic congressional candidate Jon Ossoff as well as Sens. Claire McCaskill (D., Mo.), Jon Tester (D., Mont.), Maria Cantwell (D., Wash.), and Chris Murphy (D., Conn.) around this time.
Alexander later sent a $101,700 donation to the DNC’s “building account” in late July, bringing his total amount of federal contributions to $152,000 on the year.

We need to put a Cap on the amount of donations parties can accept. Say $3.00. The kind of money the Soros throw around for their Agenda shouldn’t be allowed in U.S. politics. Side benefit with a Cap, we might even find out what the American public thinks about the parties.
I had hoped he (Soros Sr.) hadn’t reproduced. I guess that is a testament to what people will do for money….
